Exporting PDF document to Excel. When I export a PDF document to Excel containing lists of people the Excel page shows all the names on one line several inches deep instead of on separate lines which makes editing impossible. What am I doing wrong?

Murray is right. Padding (and margins) is added to the width. However, when using percentages, you should never use figures that add up to exactly 100%.
Browsers need to convert the percentages to pixels. Because pixels must be whole numbers, some percentages are rounded up, which results in the final element dropping down below its neighbours. With percentages, it's much safer to use values that add up to 98% (99% often works, but 98% is safer).

How to correct bad PDF display of Excel 2007 graph-Adobe Pro X?

Just installed Adobe Acrobat Pro X; previously had Adobe Pro 8, which worked fine. Have Excel 2007 files with an Excel graph and a JPG image on the spreadsheet tab. Both the graph and the JPG are too big, are displaced, and hide spreadsheet data, when the Excel file is Saved As a PDF using Adobe Pro dialog or Excel dialog, or the Excel Plug-In to Create PDF. For some strange reason, printing to PDF works, although that is limiting. All of the settings are the same for the Adobe Printer as Adobe Pro settings. Changing them or going to default did not help. Just did the latest update; that did not help.
The graph and JPG are too large for the PDF page. Paper printing from Excel still works fine. Producing a PDF on another machine with Pro 8 still works fine. Could not find this problem discussed anywhere. Using XP, fully patched. This should not be a complicated process, nor a complex spreadsheet. What is going on?
Thanks

Regardless of the method and Adobe product used to create the PDF, including the Excel tool button, the single common factor whether the PDF correctly displays a JPG or graph in the Excel file that is being done at anything other than 100% size is whether the Adobe Printer or a Physical Printer is selected as the default printer in the Windows Printers and Faxes-Settings. This is true even though the printer is not being used. I have created the same PDF using every method/product and the results are always the same, and only properly display when either the setting is 100% size or the system printer is selected as Adobe Printer. This is true only after installing Adobe X (8 was previously installed, and worked as expected).

You say the settings for the printer work fine, but do not for PDF Maker (I am assuming this is what you meant). PDF Maker no longer uses the printer and the settings are independent. Check the settings for PDF Maker under the create PDF menu.

Help with exporting forms based data to Excel 2007

I have a user who is attempting to export forms based data to Microsoft Excel 2007 and when he attempts this he receives a message stating that Windows does not recognise this file type (tsv). I am not too familiar with Office 2007 so I am unable to direct this users as to how to correct this issue.
Is someone able to give me the navigation path to help me to assist this user? thanks

Did you verify the file type from Windows Explorer?
1) Right click on My Computer > Explore
2) Go to Tools > Folder Options
3) Click on File Types tab
4) Check if TSV file is defined there or not. If it is not there, click on New and add the File Extension

Change in report format after exporting from pdf format to excel format.

Hi,
I got a problem while exporting the pdf format of the Report to Excel format "Fully-Foramtted Grids and Texts".
The format gets automatically changed.
Is there any solution to this problem.

Can you give some more details?
Which version are you using (and which patch level - if any).
Also what formatting is default on the reports and what is the default format in excel.
What exactly is different between PDF and excel?
Another possibility is that font substitution is going on??

Importing pdf form into Excel 2007 gives me a blank form

Howdy. I am using Excel 2007 and I choose Insert - Object - Adobe Acrobat Document. When the pdf is inserted I see the form but every field is now blank. I am using Adobe Reader X to review the forms I receive. I do not know when version the original form was created in. Even if I save the form in Reader X and then import it, it is still blank. Does anyone know how to keep the data in the form?
Thanks

Form fields and annotations (such as those available on the Review & Comment toolbar) are not part of the core PDF page content.
Form fields and annotations are objects that are associated with a location on a PDF page.
Core content of a PDF (including the glyphs that depict textual content) are graphic objects "painted" to the PDF page by the PDF creation process.
A simple way to see this is to create two simple 1 page PDFs having different page content.
On the first PDF, add a form field and an annotation. Save. Now, use Replace Pages to replace PDF#1 with PDF#2.
Or, do the opposite. Either demonstrates that form fields and annotations are not part of the core PDF page content.
Simplistic, but convenient is to consider form fields/annotations as on a separate "layer".
The "meat and potatoes" are in ISO 32000-1.
Adobe's ISO approved copy of ISO 32000-1 (The PDF ISO Standard):
http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/PDF32000_200 8.pdf
What is inserted into the Excel file is the core PDF page content.
Using Acrobat Pro:
To "flatten" form fields into the PDF page content you could use Acrobat's Optimizer or a Preflight.
To "flatten" annotations into the PDF page content you could use an Acrobat Preflight.
Be well...

Crystal Reports 2008 - Excel 2007 Data Source

Have been using Crystal reports 10 and have downloaded 2008 but I can't see a way that I can use an Excel 2007 spreadsheet .xlsx as a datasource. The reason I need 2007 is due to the increased number of columns.
Can anyone confirm if it can be done if so how
cheers
Malcolm

Hello,
Sorry its not supported. Next version of CR will support it.
CR 2008 will generate sheets for every 65,000 rows of data.
If you need that many coumns you may want to look at some other export format or refining your data.
Thank you
Don

Problem Creating PDF Files from Excel 2007

I am running WinXP SP2, Office 2007, and Acrobat v8.1.2. I have an Excel workbook with multiple worksheets. When I was using Excel 2003 I could create a PDF file using five of the six worksheets. Since upgrading to Office 2007 I am unable to create PDF files from Excel. I can create PDF files from Word 2007. When I attempt to use the Acrobat Plug-in to create a PDF I get a message saying the file needs to be saved first. It then attempts to save the file to a strange, somewhat random, file name (e.g. A234G53). When I say OK Excel just hangs and is unresponsive. The way that I can clear it is to stop Excel using Task Manager. I have tried reinstalling Acrobat without successfully solving the problem. Any ideas on how I can diagnose and/or solve the problem?
Thanks.

Is your Excel file on a location outside your machine's disk? If so, try copying to local disk.
Does the Excel file have any protection applied to it? If so, try removing the protection
If these don't work, can you post a sample file that demonstrates the problem.

Warning message when exporting a Financial Report to Excel 2007

Excel 2007 users that attempt to export a fully formatted Financial Report into Excel 2007 get the following error message:
"The file you are trying to open, 'FileName.xls', is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?"
I am still researching the behavior that users get when they click through the message, but would ideally like for the message not to appear without updating the client machine registries. Has anybody else run across this?
Excel 2007
BI Plus version: 9.3.1.0.0.248

It looks like this is a known issue addressed in Bug 7359171 - EXPORT TO EXCEL 2007 CAUSES FILE FORMAT WARNING:
The current design does not allow you to open HTML content from a web site in Excel unless the extension of the URL is .HTM/.HTML/.MHT/.MHTML. So ASP pages that return HTML and set the MIME type to something like XLS to try to force the HTML to open in Excel instead of the web browser (as expected) will always get the security alert since the content does not match the MIME type. If you use an HTML MIME type, then the web browser will open the content instead of Excel. So there is no good workaround for this case because of the lack of a special MIME type for HTML/MHTML that is Excel specific. You can add your own MIME type if you control both the web server and the client desktops that need access to it but, otherwise the best option is to use a different file format or alert your users of the warning and tell them to select Yes to the dialog.
Another Workaround :
Client Configuration of Extension Hardening.
Client desktops can change the default behavior of the security check using a registry key. The following registry key can be set to alter the behavior ofthe Excel 2007 client in the following ways:
Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Excel\SecurityValue: (DWORD)"ExtensionHardening" = [0 = Disable check; 1 = Enable check and prompt; 2 = Enable check, no prompt deny open]Default setting if value not present is 1 (enable and prompt).
The client can configure the site to disable the check by setting ExtensionHardening = 0. This will stop the prompt from appearing, but it will also disable any future checks for the file content validity. This does not (in itself) lower your security. The check is part of a defense-in-depth strategy to prevent malicious users from crafting files of a different type than its extension (or MIME type), which could then be used to trick users into opening a file of a type they did not expect. This warning is designed to let the user know of this potential threat and given them an option of canceling the open if they wish.

Exporting a BI report to excel 2007 from Portal

Hi,
Any one please let me know is there any option to export a BI report from portal to MS excel 2007, the option which we have directly prompts to save in 2000/2003.
Regards,
Pradeep

Hi Pradeep,
Could you please try if following trick works:
1. Open the report at Portal.
2. Export it as 2000/2003 format.
3. Open the downloaded report with your MS Excel 2007
4. Save it as 2007 MS Excel format.
Sorry as I haven't personally tried above but just a suggestion; Please let me know if above works or not?

Exporting Oracle 10g reports into Excel 2007

Does anybody knows if there exits compatibility with the export function to Excel 2007?
Some users will be installing this Excel version and i don't know if the formatting and displaying will be similar as using previous versions. They use the export function available from Discoverer Viewer.
We have Oracle Discoverer Administrator version 10.1.2.1 and Discoverer Administrator client 10.1.2.48.18.
Thanks!

This is an old thread, but I was hoping there might be an update for it. The workaround of exporting to a .csv does work, but we need to be able to export to excel 2007. We have Discoverer Plus 11g and there doesn't seem to be an option to export to 2007's xlsx (just xls). Is there a way to add xlsx an an option to export to?
I saw the metalink document describing why exel 2003 (& 2007) behaves the way it does, which is fine. If that's the case, I (or my users more specifically) don't want to use it. Truth is, most users balk at extra steps (even a simple one like manually picking .csv), and the happier they are the easier my job is. They need to be able to export to the 2007 xlsx version which supports 1 mil rows per sheet. Can that format be enabled in Plus 11g?
Thanks

Image looks different in Acrobat after exporting to PDF

I just created an image in InDesign. I exported it as a PDF and viewed it in Acrobat. There are two things going on here that I'm not sure about. First of all, there appears to be a broken edge on the right side of the image when viewed in Acrobat. I took a screen shot of each image. In the first image (Acrobat), you can see the line break. In Indesign, which is the second image placed into this thread, there is no line break. I checked Indesign for any shapes or images that I may have missed that might be hanging around obstructing the edge, but there was nothing there.
Another issue I'm having is that the black seems to be faded in the Acrobat image. See how it is that nice stark dark black in my screen shot from Indesign? Is this happening because the original image (created in Photoshop) doesn't use rich black? The black in the photoshop image is 76, 71, 65, 81 in CMYK. If this is the problem, could I convert it to rich black somehow in Photoshop or InDesign?
Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the black issue is your settings for Appearance of Black in the preferences. The CMYK numbers you gave us earlier correspond to an RGB black in the range of the low 30s in all channels, which is a smewaht graysish balck, and would be a very good RGB approximation of 100% K.
I'll bet if you look at the setting for Appearance of Black it's set to Display all Blacks as Rich Black which gives you a false impression of darkness for 100% K. Black ink alone looks faded, or gray, next to a rich black with a high K component. In the screen captures below, there are three overlapping squares. Upper left is filled with 100% K, middle with the RGB conversion of 100% K in my color settings (GRAcol and Adobe RGB), and the lower right is filled with your 76, 71, 65, 81 mix. The only differntence is that on the top the Prefs are set to display blacks accurately, and on the bottom they're set to display as rich black:
